The (loath of .Mr. Fillmore reminds us
that there has.boen heretotora a political
partnership in the state besides that of
Howard, Weed and Ureely. we refer to
the old firm of Graneer. Fillmore and
Seward. Both firms were for many years
engaged ia the same kind of transactions,
though, the .latter partnership, of which
Bewara wm taa need, was more impor

the junior member.
Francis Graneer was born in 1787, Mil
lard Fillmore in 1800. Though Granger
was in the assembly one session before
the anti-masonic excitement broke out.
all three' were prominent mombers of that
party, wnicn irom ihzt till it ceased to
exist as a separate organization, broke
full away in, the western counties where
these aspirinr men resided.
Granger, Fillmore and Seward were for
a snort period members of the legislature
at the same time ; the two former in the
assembly, the latter in the senste. Gran
ger was then one of the Uuo.t !vkin
men in the State, and always dressed in
the hlstbt of the fashion. He often wore
a bottle-green coat with brats buttons, and
had a decidedly aristocratic air, as became
a gentleman of wealth, a graduate of Tale,
and the son of the man who had been
postmaster general thirteen years under
Jefferson and Madison. lie spoke fre
quently In the assembly, but was elegant
and fluent rather than elaborate and pro

used to crowd the gallery to hear and
especially to' see the gallant member of
Ontario. Fillmore entered the assembly
from Krie In 1829. He was stiff and dig
nified, and, though industrious, was rathsr
dull except whan aroused, and then, he
could make a pointed, vigorous speech,
lie was in the assembly three sesslons,and
by persistent plodding became a sort of
lieutenant ot Granger as a leader of the
opposition of the Democracy. Sew.ard en
tered the Senate in 1831. He was the
youngest member, and his personal an.
paarance was far from impressive, but he

1830 and 1832. and desired to run arain
in 1834. Weed liked Granger, but be
warmed to Seward, and so Seward cot
the nomination in 1834, Fillmore boiog
then in coneress. Sewarl was defeated
at the polls. Granger was conciliated with
the nomination for vice-president on
the Harrison ticket in 1838, but was badly
beaten. In 1838 it was pretty certain
that the Whigs would carry the state,
and Granger made a struggle for the can
didacy for governor. But Weed declared
for Seward and, after a sharp contest in
the state convention Seward was nomin- j
ated, end he got eleoted. Fillmore had
